Fender gold foil JM
Doubt they are real goldfoils ( i think they are just dressed up mini HBs) but man they look pretty cool!

I put together a Jazzmaster Partscaster. MJT ash relic body, fender Japan strat neck that has been scalloped, 60's Fender Tremolo, mastery bridge, Jess Lorenzo wide range humbucker pickups. Plays really well, and is really resonant unplugged. Haven't adjusted the pickups properly yet, but they sounded fantastic in a previous guitar. I need to relic the pickup covers a bit though.

I also picked up a cheap Jagstang last week. I've had two before, but they were a bit dead sounding unplugged, so sold them (always regretted selling them.) Body is a bit untidy, but the neck feels great, and it sounds great unplugged. Have put a Lindy Fralin Vintage-Hot pickup in the neck, and a Jason Becker Perpetual-Burn in the bridge. I haven't had a chance to adjust the pickups yet, to see how they sound. If the perpetual burn doesn't suit the guitar, I've got a couple of other options - I just really wanted to get that pickup in a guitar.

Congrats nice pair.
That body and guard on the JM looks great! Big fan of anodized gold plate. Lovely wear on the body. I'm going to use photo shop to add a rosewood fingerboard tho!

Dibs on most of that stuff btw ;)

I'm pretty sure I've got most of the guitar. I split it up into bit for other builds quite a while ago.

Phew. I hope you shaved that fat neck to make it thin. And cut the ugly JM horns off. And that gold pickguard was gaudy. a Mother of Toilet seat one would be more fitting.
